Hate it when they say timetable revised and offer no details especially with the Angel.
It normally means stealth cuts
"The weekday journey at 8.05am from Stanley is revised to run in school holidays only"
I currently get this journey from Lanchester and its usually full, I originally got the 8:35 departur e(which was always later, thus missing the connecting X30 to Newcastle) for some time after the original changes.
I really hope they've retimed the 8:35 to include it getting stuck at St Bedes every morning

- Alternate Sunday journeys run as service 82B, which additionally serve Harraton and Rickleton, omitting The Drive, Windemere and Dunvegan.

(24 Mar 2016, 7:47 pm)wise owl Not 100% sure if i read this on the forum or if it was discussed at depot level, service 50 on eves/sunday was to follow daytime route (past nissan & serving ayton again, therefore could the 82B be replacing the 50a between washington, harraton & rickleton?
And in reality contracts are agreed with nexus. So who takes the blame if estates only see a 2hr service?

(24 Mar 2016, 7:53 pm)Michael On the link posted earlier with the changes on:
Whey Aye Five-O 50
Service retimed to improve reliability, and diverted via Ayton to re-instate service in this area following passenger requests.
Sunday daytime service now runs as normal service 50, with passengers from Rickleton being able to travel on new service 82B.

(24 Mar 2016, 7:52 pm)DaveyBowyer What will the long term strategy be for the 45/46/47 then in terms of allocations? Will GNE decide to go with Single Decks across the board or try and push growth for double decks?

(24 Mar 2016, 7:57 pm)Michael For the time being, it seems GNE are using both Single/deckers on the Red Kite services as it says:It'll work well because some journeys from the metro leave with standees on 45/46s.
The 45, 46 and 47 services will be ran by both single and double-deck buses.
(24 Mar 2016, 4:18 pm)Michael 17th April ChangesIt's getting a bit repetitive with the 50. It'd be nice for a route to be chosen and stuck to, rather than constantly faffing on whether it'll serve Ayton or not.

I don't think the mixed allocation and interworking on the Red Kites is a good idea either. A standard was given to the 45/46 that they'd have eLeather seating, Next stop and plug sockets. There's now a chance they won't receive that level of service, unless the B9TLs are retrofitted.
The timing changes for reliability are obviously welcome, and hopefully it works out to improve the service for those users.

I think it would have been the perfect opportunity to renumber service 5 to 50A, just to keep the service number in some way consistent with the brand. At the moment, it will only meet the 'Whey Aye Five' part of the brand. I appreciate it won't make a massive difference to customers, but I just thought something like that would have been quite nice.
